NAREIT Announces 2013 Investor CARE Award Winners

6/6/2013 | By Carisa Chappell

The winners of NAREIT’s 2013 Investor CARE Awards were announced on June 6 in Chicago at REITWeek 2013: NAREIT’s Investor Forum. It marked the 13th year that NAREIT has handed out the annual awards, which honor excellence in communications and reporting to shareholders.

Steve Wechsler, NAREIT’s president and CEO, announced the companies that had been recognized for their annual reports and websites.

Camden Property Trust is celebrating its 20th year as a public company, and Kim Callahan, senior vice president of investor relations, said the latest annual report was created to recognize the anniversary.

“We always tried to keep our annual report a little outside of the box and do something a little different and keep it fresh, especially at this point in the game as our annual report has gone from a very large text and narrative type of document into basically a very long financial SEC document,” she said.

“When we set out to redesign our website some time ago, we knew it didn’t just have to look pretty. It also had to be functionally operational and user friendly,” said David Bujnicki, Kimco’s vice president of investor relations and corporate communications.

The NAREIT CARE Awards are judged by an independent panel of REIT securities analysts and portfolio managers.
